What customers say

I couldn’t recommend RDR enough. If you enjoy coffee at home in the morning (or evening.. whatever suits your fancy!) then these beans for you. Go try a hot cup of their coffee at the Durham Farmer’s Market on a chilly Saturday- you won’t regret it. Oh! And on the hot days in the summer, their cold brew is unbeatable.

Got coffees from these folks at the Durham Farmers’ Market. It was the Strawberry Shindy so they had a special strawberry foam (my daughter got the oat version) and it was delicious. I got a pour over, and was lucky enough that the roaster had just rolled up on his bike, so he recommended a bean and made it for me.

Amazing cold brew blend! Not too acidic, or water down. Perfect black, or with a little fancy-ing up. Plus! Very knowledgeable about the beans, and always so nice & great vibes! 10/10 amazing roasters

★★★★★ — Erin, 2026-04

This is my favorite coffee. I live in Upstate NY and love the beans so much that I buy a bunch of bags every time I’m in town, because I haven’t found anything nearly as good!
